Chickpea Blondies
Chickpea blondies are a soft, chewy dessert made with blended chickpeas, oat flour, and maple syrup for a naturally sweet, flourless base.
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
- ½ cup peanut butter
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup oat flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup walnuts, chopped
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper.
- Add the drained and rinsed chickpeas, peanut butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to a food processor. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Transfer the blended mixture to a large mixing bowl. Stir in the oat flour and salt until fully combined, then fold in the chopped walnuts and white chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden. Let the blondies cool completely before slicing.

Notes
- Blend Until Fully Smooth: The chickpeas should be completely pureed so the blondies have a smooth texture with no bean taste.
- Use an 8×8 Pan: This size gives the blondies the right thickness for a soft, chewy center.
- Do Not Overbake: The blondies will continue to set as they cool, so remove them once the center is just set.
- Cool Before Slicing: Letting the blondies cool completely helps them firm up and cut cleanly.
- Line the Pan: Parchment paper makes it easy to lift the blondies out and prevents sticking.
